12 Most Beautiful Palaces in the World - Travel Video

Once home to kings and queens, palaces were built not only to act as royal residences, but to project power and prestige. As such, monarchs and emperors vied with one another, commissioning lavish summer homes and assembling exquisite art collections with which to fill their endless halls and royal chambers. Besides the magnificent artworks, the former royal residences also boast gorgeous grounds and gardens, with plenty of fabulous fountains and flowerbeds on display. Due to their significant artistic, cultural and historical value, these beautiful palaces now make for some of the most popular tourist attractions around.

OMG why Is the Taj Lake Palace of Udaipur, In India Not Included in this list??? It's Like One of the Most beautiful, Elegant Palaces Of the World. It's made by white marble and IS ON A LAKE!! 😍😍😍

What about the Majestic Mysore Palace of the Wadiyar family??? It deserves to be on this list and has somewhat more luxurious interiors!

[AyushKumar-uuyd]

Alhambra feels more like a warm and cozy Home than a palace.

Very complete

I first visited the forbidden city in China in 1997. I was totally awed by its grandeur and intricate design and architecture. The palace grounds cover a total land size of 72 hectares and it’s reported to have 9999.5 rooms. The guide told me it would take us 3 days to fully tour the palace grounds but alas we were only given 3 hours to superficially tour the palace. 😂 I intended to make a return visit to it but somehow it never happens after all these years....😅

The Versailles in France would always be the most beautiful ❤️🌹🌹❤️

[aurumarum]

I personally like the Asia palaces because they painted the palace with various colours compared to the others. It gave them something like mistycal warm vibes.

[josegabrielito]

There is nothing beautiful about Buckingham Palace, The royal palace of Caserta or that of Madrid should have been included instead,

[wind-up_team]
